Foreign body anywhere in the body can be a diagnostic challenge to a doctor, especially if it is wooden and hardly symptomatic. A foreign body in the parotid gland, whether from the oral cavity or through the skin is extremely uncommon. We are presenting a case of a wooden foreign body in the parotid gland of a 61-year-old patient who did not want to be examined or treated initially as it was not causing him any troublesome symptoms.
体内任何部位出现异物对医生来说都是一项诊断挑战,尤其是当异物为木质且几乎没有症状时。腮腺内的异物,无论来自口腔还是通过皮肤进入,都极为罕见。我们现报告一例61岁患者腮腺内木质异物的病例,该患者最初因未出现任何困扰症状而不愿接受检查或治疗。
